What is your current position?

After graduating with a Master's degree in Toulouse and a MBA in Bangkok, I was thirsty for adventure. So I decided to try my luck abroad. My adventure started with Amazon, a company for which I worked for a total of 6 years. From Prague, through Seattle, then Luxembourg and Dubai. For Amazon I worked in several different jobs, I started in the Supply Chain, then in Account Management and finally as Online Marketing Manager.

Since February 2023, I am Key Account Manager for Samsung Electronics in Dubai. In my current position I am responsible for samsung.com for the Emirates and I am in charge of all the digital marketing, product promotion and partnerships. My goal is to attract consumers to samsung.com.
